Some people seems to need to believe in the supernatural for some reasons, and some do not have such a weird problem. There is nothing that causes so much harm and evil than those sick believes.

Did you finally play around with it? If so, what was your experience like?

Now there are some federations running on main chain and Mutiny wallet has a recommendation system for them. Are you using any of them? (if you care to comment, of course.)

Because it's going to happen every four years (ish) for the next 116-ish years.

Nope.

I still have regular income in fiat, which I convert into Bitcoin all the time.

Also, I keep a small part of my BTC as BPro, which gets a small free leverage on BTC price from the minting of Dollar on Chain (DoC), the Money on Chain stable coin pegged to the USD and backed by Bitcoin on the RSK Bitcoin sidechain.

Not enough, so I keep changing fiat (I still get income in fiat) to sats regularly.

It depends on the stash: hardware wallet, computer, laptop, mobile phone, browser extension wallet, custodial (SN, BitSOAPbox, etc.) wallets.

I don't think there are any federations live on mainnet yet.

You can test it on signet using this federation and faucet. It works very nicely.

I'd buy more gold. Bitoin's dead. This time for real. —Peter Shits

I don't do either of those two things.

I don't have a credit card. There's nothing I need/want so bad to pay such kind of interest.

Me too. It's the only thing that, if it happened, would make me say that Bitcoin was failing, not failed, since It could always recover, if more mining power was added...

The only one or one among a few, no need to be just one. :-)

Block time being so long that difficulty couldn't be adjusted down.

I'd use XMPP instead of email, of course. I'd rather have an option to use two different LN wallets, or with Nostr using nos2x, or a Bitcoin address (ala BitSOAPBOX)...

Wasn't ¢ø|ñßæ$€ the custodian for ES's BTC? Won't the US government steal (confiscate or whatever, when they realize they can) their Bitcoin before than a salvadoreño tries?

Indeed, sats are still so cheap...

I'm mostly excited to see how Nostr, Fedimint, and Bitcoin empower us to use opensource AIs, far outside of the closed proprietary systems that the mainstream companies are trying to sell us at all cost and capture us into.

Well, I'm waiting for a buy order somebody took from me an hour ago on Robosats to finish. That person was ready to release a few thousand sats to me in exchange for a few of my euros.

They might need those euros to buy some dinner, or to pay for gas, or they are happy to get more fiat than they changed those sats for in the past (they are realizing their "gains"), or maybe they speculate and they're hopping to exchange them back later for some more sats than they are giving me now.

The fact is that there was someone ready to do that, bellow the ATH price, and that I was ready to stack a few more sats as well.

Oh, they just released those sats while I was typing this and Robosats just paid my invoice. A few more sats stacked. :-)

Bitcoin's hit $70184 because there were people ready to pay that price while other people were ready to sell theirs at the same price. Whether it's Russia, China, me, you, or the freaking US ETF providers... who cares? Bitcoin doesn't, and neither should we. :-)
